It sounds like it's working, but you need an input filter to convert line feeds to CR/LF, and then need to add a form feed at the end of the job. I know the Handbook section on printing talks about the LF/CRLF issue, can't recall if it mentions adding form feeds. Take care of the stairstepping first, then form feeds will be easy. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
